Event details

Join Northwestern Mutual’s Heather Zepeda, Managing Director of the DC office and President of the Women’s Field Association (WFA), to hear about her experience at Northwestern Mutual and what she’s doing to support women across the country. She’ll share how she grew her career in a male-dominated industry, how she balances her career and family, and what the WFA means to her. Come see what sets Northwestern Mutual apart when it comes to advancing women in the workplace. 

More about the WFA:

The Women’s Field Association was built in 2020 by women of the field, for women of the field. The mission is to unify and grow the community, amplifying the voices of women, and influencing priorities to positively impact the experiences of Northwestern Mutual. 

The WFA is a self-driven advocacy arm, a way to communicate with women on issues important to them, and a community for growth, development, and relationship building. The association is accelerating women within the organization and is helping create visibility for their career needs. Come join us in driving change.
